Conclusion of Is That Jazz? Festival
The Avant-Jazz Festival at the Chapel Performance Space wrapped up this past weekend with four more powerful performances. The second weekend began with Vertigo led by Seattle Clarinetist Jesse Canterbury. It was an ethereal almost dream like set that carried the listener on a journey into the stars.

Flying Apron Bakery Cookbook
(In a rare turn, we're treated this week to a local cookbook review from the wonderful Mrs. Wallyhood.) I’m not a writer, I usually leave that up to Mr. Wallyhood. I’m not a professional chef, either, though I have had a few stints in kitchens. And I’m certainly not a book reviewer.
